Best of all, even at capacity, the ship feels very spacious, meaning you can avoid long and unnecessary queues, and enjoy your cruise on your terms. Perhaps most strikingly of all, the ship is named Celebrity Solstice®, for good reason – she has 216 solar panels that contribute to its electrical grid. She is unique in that sense at the very least, with a resultant half-acre of living grass called the Lawn Club also featuring on the ship. Play some boules, relax, or catch a movie in the sunshine – life on board combines luxury and comfort.
